About this file
This is a Blue Insight Utilization Analysis Report for the City of Edinburg's group health insurance plan (Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas), covering the period from October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025 for claims incurred and paid through November 30, 2025. The report analyzes medical and pharmacy claims data for the City of Edinburg's employee health plan, which serves as background information for the upcoming FY 2026-2027 Group Employee Medical Insurance RFP issued by the City of Edinburg, Texas. The RFP seeks proposals for both fully-funded and self-funded group medical insurance options to enable the City to evaluate vendor products and services against alternative carriers and determine the best fit for the organization's needs.
The utilization analysis reveals significant cost trends and demographic shifts critical to the upcoming procurement. Overall enrollment decreased 2.0% to 1,709 members, but paid expenses per member per month increased 39.1% year-over-year to $516.67, driven primarily by a greater-than-100% increase in inpatient facility costs. Inpatient admissions increased 11.3% to 49.1 per 1,000 members, with complex newborn admissions increasing more than 100%, and inpatient paid per admission rose to $38,170. High-cost claimants (those with expenses exceeding $50,000) increased from 24 to 29 members, now accounting for 49.7% of total paid expenses. Top diagnostic categories include neoplasms (accounting for 19.0% of costs with an 86.6% increase), perinatal conditions (experiencing greater-than-100% cost growth), and circulatory conditions. Pharmacy paid PMPM increased 17.4%, with specialty drugs representing 34.2% of pharmacy costs. The plan's medical paid PMPM of $390.17 was 4.0% lower than the Texas benchmark of $406.51, and the overall paid PMPM of $516.67 was 7.2% lower than the benchmark of $556.70.
